QUICK ANSWER · AEO / GEO
Melanotan II is distinct from afamelanotide and bremelanotide. TGA's 17 August 2026 advisory found inconsistent content in tested nasal products and states there are no authorised Melanotan II products in Australia. FDA lists serious case reports and impurity/immunogenicity concerns; these do not quantify causality or universal incidence.
